by Kudakwashe MuzoriwaBahrain’s Mumtalakat has hired banks to arrange fixed income investor meetings ahead of a potential US dollar-denominated Sukuk issuance.
The Kingdom’s sovereign wealth fund has hired Citi, Gulf International Bank as well as HSBC, National Bank of Bahrain and Standard Chartered for investor meetings in London, Asia and the Middle East.
The regional debt markets have weakened due to escalating geopolitical tensions but a Sukuk issuance might not be seen as a real test for issuers’ ability to access international debt buyers despite market volatility.
Rated BB- by Fitch Ratings, Mumtalakat, raised $600 million in Sukuk last year, having obtained orders of around $4 billion for the debt sale, reported Reuters.
